1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveTo investigate the cytoprotective effects of high dose of α-galactosylceramide (α-GC) on the activation-induced CD4+ T and CD8+ T cell death.

methodsExperimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was induced using adoptive transfer of MOGCD4+ cells treated using α-GC into recipient C57BL/6 mice while the MOGCD4+ cells treated using 0.5% polysorbate were set as vehicle group, based on which to investigate the effects of α-GC on activation induced CD4+ T cell death. Additionally, an EG7 tumor-bearing mice model is established using adoptive transfer of CD8+ T cells, based on which to investigate the effect of α-GC on the apoptosis of CD8+ T cells.

resultsA higher induction rate was noticed after adoptive transfer of MOGCD4+ cells treated using α-GC together with the severity of EAE compared with the conventional methods. Longer survival duration was noted in the green fluorescent protein (GFP) labeled MOGT in the α-GC group compared with the vehicle group (P < 0.05). Severe inflammatory cell infiltration and myelinoclasis was noted in the white matter of nervous system in the α-GC group. In the EG7 tumor model, more adoptive CD8+ T cells were survived in α-GC group compared with that of vehicle group. The growth of tumor mass was significantly inhibited in α-GC group.

conclusionshigh dose of α-GC could be used as an adjuvant for inhibiting activation-induced CD4+ T and CD8+ T cell death. Our study could provide helpful information for the development of adoptive cell therapy with reduced programmed cell death.
